Reading is one of my favorite things to do, yet with my huge workload and hectic schedule during the school year, I feel like I have no time to dive into a good book. So, here is a list of some of the new and popular books I want to read this summer, along with some of my old favorites that you should check out! Whether you’re looking for something to read while soaking up the sun on the beach or sitting on a park bench, these books are sure to be a good read.
1. Turtles All the Way Down by John Green
After writing The Fault in Our Stars, Paper Towns, and so many other books, it’s pretty clear that John Green doesn’t disappoint.
2. Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur
We’ve all seen pictures of the aesthetically pleasing pages on our Twitter and Instagram feeds, but this year I am actually going to read this poetry book!
3. All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven
You’ll definitely want to read this one before seeing the movie, which is set to start production this year.
4. Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell
If you’re a hopeless romantic, you’ll adore this coming-of-age story about young love.
5. Flux by Orion Carltolo
Despite being a quick read, you’ll take away so much about living, learning and heartbreak from this book. The personalized illustrations also add a great touch!
6. The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls
The 2017 movie was great, but the book was even better.
